Description

Arctic Technology heat dissipation pads from Superstar Components are a perfect way to upgrade your brake system to cope with hardcore riding and epic descents.


Using a custom made, CNC'd, aerospace specification aluminium fin which the pad slots into, Arctic pads run cooler than basic pads and the replaceable pad inserts mean you can keep your fins and replace only the pad element low cost replacements in the long term.

One pack includes 4 pairs of pads and 2 sets of fins so you can upgrade both of your brakes and have a spare pair of pads ready to fit.

Please consult our Pad Identifier and Pad Fitment Guide for more information.

Not sure which compound to choose?

We offer 2 compounds for our Arctic Technology brake pads as follows:

Sintered - Yellow:a hard pad for long life in abrasive and extreme conditions.
Kevlar - Orange: a soft race pad for ultimate power with Kevlar fibres for extended life. 

Please note: Arctic technology finned pads are only compatible with Arctic pads which are designed with a thinner backplate. Arctic pads can be identified by yellow backing on sintered pads and orange backing on Kevlar pads. Do not attempt to run Arctic pads without fins or standard pads with fins - they will not work!

    I got these for my zee's, when you install them the finned area that sticks out is about the size of the caliper again, bearing in mind this is a large 4 piston caliper. They look mental... I used the ssc pads with a competitor's rather more descrete replaceable fins and they seem really good.
